This can lead to bloody mucus in nose areas when the blood resulting from this minimal trauma is mixed in with regular clear mucus. And, when blood dries, mucus color can change again, becoming tinged with shades of brown or dark red when dislodged from the nasal area. Therefore brown mucus from nose areas is not uncommon during times of illness or other nose maladies.
Soil Compaction Tests. There are many types of Soil compaction tests which are performed on soil. One of the most common test to determine the field density of soil is the sand-cone method. Maximum density is found by plotting a densityâmoisture curve.
Minimize traffic on the mound, both human and animal, to avoid soil compaction. Do not exercise pets or stake pets on septic mounds. Never drive a car or other vehicle across the mound or mow when the soil is wet. Compacted soil can lead to soil erosion and impedes the flow of air around the system. In winter, activity on a mound can cause frost to penetrate resulting in freezing problems.
